章 75: Interlude 3 – New Moves are Made

In an entirely white space, with occasional black balls that looked like dots floating in the air, two beings were seated opposite each other

There was a chessboard atop a table in between them and unlike normal chess boards with 16 pieces per side, this one had twelve.

To be exact, 11 pieces were on each side of the board and one of the pieces had been removed from each side.

The c1 and c8 pieces respectively.

On one end was a dark man, dressed in his usual three-piece suit with a hat to match.

His face was as ever-changing as usual, showing different expressions every second.

Suddenly, he raised an eyebrow as the expressions on his face all turned to ones of amusement.

He looked at the woman opposite him and spoke.

"Grandmaster already, faster than I thought."

The woman who was wearing her usual white gown, with a white shawl, tucked part of her long white hair behind her ear and spoke with an enchanting voice.
